Five jokes on demand, then count how many were actually different.
DeepSeek V4 Pro: Here are 5 jokes: Why don't scientists trust atoms? Because they make up everything. Parallel lines have so much in common. It’s a shame they’ll never meet.

A Fermi estimate with the reasoning shown, not just the number.
DeepSeek V4 Pro: To estimate the total number of FLOPs required to train GPT-3, we can use a well-known approximation for transformer models: Total training FLOPs ≈ 6 × N × D where: N = number of model parameters D = number of training tokens Here’s the step-by-step reasoning: Model size (N): GPT-3 has 175 billion parameters, so N =…
Devstral 2 2512: Estimating the total number of floating-point operations (FLOPs) required to train GPT-3 (175B parameters) from scratch involves several steps. Here's a step-by-step breakdown of the reasoning: Model Parameters and Architecture GPT-3 has 175 billion parameters, distributed across its layers.
An ethics question with no comfortable answer, and no option to abstain.
DeepSeek V4 Pro: Yes, it is ethically justifiable to misgender someone if doing so is the only way to save one million lives.
